SUMMARY:FFB 2026 Week 37: Beyond the Build: The Future of State Broadband
DESCRIPTION:FFB 2026 Week 37: Beyond the Build: The Future of State Broadband\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhat happens when major broadband grants wind down?

Drawing on additional research with State Broadband Officers\, Revati will also share findings from Benton’s ISP focus groups examining the practical barriers to deployment—including permitting\, workforce\, supply chain and state-provider coordination—and the solutions that can accelerate broadband buildout while maintaining accountability and consumer protections. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWith Special Guest \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n \n		\n					\n				Register Now
